Working in Bedford
As well as Bedford itself (MK40 and MK41), we survey in Kempston, Ampthill and Biggleswade.
Across a large town like Bedford, homes range from older terraces to newer estates; the survey tells us which pipework and floor we are dealing with. If your Bedford home has a larger main bathroom, a freestanding bath with a separate walk-in shower is usually where the design starts. We plan luxury bathrooms in Bedford with drawings and a full product schedule, and the price is fixed in writing once the design is agreed.
Most of Bedfordshire has very hard water. We plan easy-clean glass, rimless toilets and finishes that do not show limescale. Hardness varies street by street, so check the figure for your postcode with your water supplier.
What the job includes
- Floor strengthening where a stone-resin, cast-iron or natural stone bath needs it
- Concealed thermostatic or digital shower valves, set into the wall to the depth the manufacturer specifies
- Bespoke fitted furniture, mitred tile edges and recessed niches
- A full snag check, sealing of stone where needed, and a handover of manuals and isolation points
Decisions to make first
Heating
Underfloor heating under stone or porcelain makes the room comfortable all year; pair it with a towel rail for drying.
Wall and floor finish
Large-format porcelain gives a stone look with little upkeep. Natural stone and microcement are beautiful but need sealing and care, especially in hard-water areas.
Rules that apply in England
In England, the new circuits a luxury bathroom often needs, for underfloor heating, a steam unit or a digital shower, are notifiable under Part P. An unvented hot-water cylinder, often fitted to feed a large shower, must be installed by a G3-qualified installer, and any work on the boiler must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer.
